| VaselineTopLove: This game would have been all the more exciting if it had been Kasparov on the black side instead. |

| big gino: Excuse me if someones suggested this, but why not 50.Rh3+. Takes care of the h pawn right away. Is there something I'm missing here? |

| Slurpeeman: I don't know if someone has mentioned this already, but if black plays 20...e5, then after the line given by Shredder, <1.Rxd5 Qc8 2.Nxe5 fxe5 3.Bxe5 Kg8 4.Rf1 Be6 5.Rd6 a5> there follows 26. Rxe6 Qxe6 27.Bf7+ Qxf7 28.Rxf7 Kxf7, and then white is left with a B+N against 2 rooks...yeah, why didn't Black play that? and most importantly, why did white allow black to play e5? Peraps we should ask Topalov :) |

| charms: I'd like to mention that the compliment "23rd century chess" was coined by Kramnik, who was very excited about the game.
Why can't they just get along. |

| kooley782: Amazing, just amazing. I'll bet that if Christ doesn't come back before the 23rd century, this is how chess will be played. It's like a small glimpse of what the future of chess is. |

| Cercatore: I think that Anand and Topalov was scared both, because Anand looking for draw game [ 58. Rb2 ], and Topalov too [ why not 57. ... f3? ]. Very beautiful game, but the draw isn't a good final result, imho. |

| yalie: <Kinghunt: I don't know if anyone's brought this up yet, but I'm about 99% sure 26...Bxg6 is winning for Black.> I analyzed this a while back - here's the critical line: 27. Nxg6 Rh7 Rb3 Qe8 Nf4 g6 Nfd3 Qc8 Nxb4 Qxg4 Nd5 Qe6 Rb5 Ra7 etc. and that was a draw after another 20 moves |
